#320 Washington -4.5 over Arizona
(1:00pm est): The Washington
Redskins had a tough defeat a few
weeks back at Dallas and that loss
more or less ended their playoff hopes
for this season. The Skins had a no-
show effort last week as they traveled
out to LA to play a red hot Chargers
team and they were crushed in that
game. The good news from that is it
sets up some nice line value here at
home for Washington. This is still a
very talented team that's played the
toughest schedule in the league this
year. In fact this is only their 3rd
opponent all year with a losing record
and the Skins have went 3-0 in those
three games. Arizona is also out of the
playoff race and also using their 3rd
string quarterback. Making things even
more tough for the Cardinals in this
one is that this is equal to a 10:00am
PST start time for Arizona. Coming off
an upset win last week you have to
wonder how much they have left in the
tank for what amounts to a
meaningless game for them. Take
Washington minus the points. Read MoreRead Less
